I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else.

I was a show-off as a kid. I was wearing bow ties and matching coloured trousers.

For better or ill, I was very heavily influenced by men I knew who always dressed formally.

I think it's the most wonderful thing in the world to have an identity, something the audience can remember you for.

My motto is that the audience should notice the actors, not the clothes.

I am what I am. Before I was not so proud to make fashion. My family thought fashion wasn't very interesting. So I hid that.

I want people to remember me as a full on entertainer and a good person.

I was famous from birth.

I got to meet some of the best people I've ever met, and we all grew as people and as entertainers.

My grandmother always came to my shows. She was always concerned about the way I dressed - even later on, when I was well known and I supported her.
